A Desert in Glass

Friday night
It starts and ends on a
Friday night
But only as the sandglass hits the brim
I see the other side
And I fermented my patience too many times
But as the sandglass hits the brim
I feel the height

And I was just a child on paper
But now my age can meet my mind
And save her

No, I can't let you reach me now
I'm losing a part me I never had
But still I lack
I laugh
I left my youth right in the womb
But somehow
Now I grieve at its tomb

And I loved the care
The one sometimes a bit too bare
I'm afraid I've learned my numb from your glare
And when I leave
I'll miss the tea you make
Even if my tongue burnt
I'll miss the pain

Mother, can I forgive myself for
Never forgiving you
I'm never forgiving you
Your words spilled poison in my drinking well
Go on ask me, am I eating well
I hate you
I hate you
I hate you so much that past the bound
I miss you
and I lo- you

Father, can I still be a distant mess to you
No, I'm too far left for you

Goodbye to all I've known
The whole was just a liminal
I'm in the eternal's grasp
But can't I savor
All my life I've know a dream
A dream that never left seventeen
Why change that

Friday night
It starts and ends on a
Friday night
